Reviewing research evidence for nursing practice: systematic reviews highlights the key issues involved in conducting different types of systematic reviews – encompassing qualitative studies, quantitative studies and combining quantitative and qualitative studies. It enables nurses and researchers to understand the key principles involved in preparing systematic reviews and to critically appraise the reviews they read and evaluate their usefulness in developing their own practice. Each section starts with an overview of the methodology, followed by a selection of systematic reviews carried out in specialist areas of nursing practice. Part 1 explores systematic reviews and meta-analysis of quantitative research, part 2 explores meta-synthesis and meta-study of qualitative research and part 3 addresses integrative reviews that combine both qualitative and quantitative evidence. The final part explores the use of systematic reviews in service and practice development.

Healthcare providers, consumers, researchers and policy makers are inundated with unmanageable amounts of information, including evidence from healthcare research. It has become impossible for all to have the time and resources to find, appraise and interpret this evidence and incorporate it into healthcare decisions. Cochrane Reviews respond to this challenge by identifying, appraising and synthesizing research-based evidence and presenting it in a standardized format, published in The Cochrane Library (www.thecochranelibrary.com). The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions contains methodological guidance for the preparation and maintenance of Cochrane intervention reviews. Written in a clear and accessible format, it is the essential manual for all those preparing, maintaining and reading Cochrane reviews. Many of the principles and methods described here are appropriate for systematic reviews applied to other types of research and to systematic reviews of interventions undertaken by others. It is hoped therefore that this book will be invaluable to all those who want to understand the role of systematic reviews, critically appraise published reviews or perform reviews themselves.

Volume 16 Reviews In Computational Chemistry Kenny B. Lipkowitz and Donald B. Boyd The focus of this book is on methods useful in molecular design. Tutorials and reviews span (1) methods for designing compound libraries for combinatorial chemistry and high throughput screening, (2) the workings of artificial neural networks and their use in chemistry, (3) force field methods for modeling materials and designing new substances, and (4) free energy perturbation methods of practical usefulness in ligand design. From Reviews of the Series «This series spans all the subdisciplines in the field, from techniques to practical applications, and includes reviews from many of the acknowledged leaders in the field. the reviews cross many subdisciplines yet are both general enough to be of wide interest while including detailed information of use to workers in particular subdisciplines.» -Journal of the American Chemical Society
